Spearman ISD had the highest enrollment among Hansford County districts, welcoming 743 students during the 2022-23 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Out of the total students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 54% of them were boys, and 46% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were Hispanic, representing 67% of the Spearman ISD total enrollment.

Among the three districts in Hansford County, Gruver ISD ranked second in enrollment numbers with 441 students, while Pringle-Morse CISD welcomed 107 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Spearman ISD roughly covers schools within Hansford County with its main office in Spearman.

In the previous school year, Spearman ISD had the highest number of students among Hansford County districts.

The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.

Critics argue that private schools use funds that should go to the public school system, while private school advocates claim they’re offering better education for more Texas students.

Education in Texas is often a hot button issue, especially as test scores lag behind other states.

“The problems commonly cited are flaws in the school financing system, relatively low teacher salary, poor test performance by students, dropouts from traditional schools in favor of charter schools, gun violence, and mental health issues,” claimed the Texas Almanac.
